Great to be a Queenslander

Flogged e'm, just. Bring on game 2

as a blues man it pains me to say that the best team won (ah sacrilege).

I was surprised Pricey got MOM, I thought Kimmorley was QLDs best player :-( his field kicking was atrocious compared to Lockyer.

the blues one off running was appalling, whereas those mangy maroons looked enterprising and inspired.

however, its obvious the blues can only get better and will craft their way to easy wins over the next two games.

Andrew,

It was an awesome game.

Go Queensland

Wow.

Heres something that I wont need to Thread Watch.

do you have a crystal ball it is only 44.05 into the 3rd qtr or is that just an indication of the importance of the game (qld 13 nsw0)

Never worried they were going to win got to make a game of it.

All the best
Eric

What GAME are you talking about????????????????????????????????

Whats this State of Origin - Western Australia did n't have a side playing if we did we would proberly win - I don't know if it was even televised here??

Typical Cockroaches, you let your guard down for a minute & the b#stards infest the goal post !

give kimorley the job of water boy, bring in Gower or Orfett or a host of other halfbacks who could do a better job of it than Kimorley, even John's as he is would go better, at least he has a brain.Get rid of the dimwitted selectors who opt for players who can't handle the big games and fall to pieces and someone who can coach the players to offload and back up the man trying to make a break and not just one out all of the time. Queensland deserved to win, they had an ace up their sleeve "Kimorley".
get rid of the Kimorley factor, although if he comes good in the next game I will apologise.

I watched it from start to finish and even as an Aussie Rules devotee I have to say it was very entertaining and a great advertisement for the game of Rugby League. One thing that had me in hysterics was the interviews with a number of players and the Queensland coach directly after match. In the space of three minutes I managed to count the word "mate" FIFTY-TWO TIMES. Their coaching to play league is obviously very good, but their coaching for self presentation must be deplorable. In the AFL, with the help of intensive coaching even Matthew Lloyd and Anthony Rocca can string a conversation together.

I take it Wayne Bennett doesn't have a problem with golden points this year.
